How to Make Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte

Ingredients:

1 cup Unsweetened Coconut Milk (any non-dairy or cow’s milk will work)
3/4 cup Strawberries (fresh or frozen will work)
1 little package Stevia
1 teaspoon Matcha Powder
1/2 cup hot water
Ice to serve

Directions:

Start by washing your strawberries and removing the stems. While doing this, boil some water in your kettle. If you don’t have a kettle, just boil 1 cup of water on the stove.
Take your strawberries and put them into a blender with 1 cup of coconut milk (or whichever milk you prefer). Blend until completely smooth.
Strain the strawberry puree mixture in a mesh strainer to ensure your latte is a liquid and not a smoothie. You may need to push the strawberry puree through with the back of a spoon. Set this strawberry milk aside.
Once your hot water is boiled, pour 1/2 cup into a mug. Add in your matcha powder and use a bamboo whisk to help it dissolve. This will give you a vibrant green liquid.
Add in your sweetener next (adjust to your preferred sweetness). Drop in one ice cube to cool it down and add a little more milk on top of the matcha.
In a serving glass, add a handful of ice cubes. Layer in the strawberry mixture first, followed by the matcha latte. You can serve it with the layers visible or mix it all together with a straw. Enjoy it right away!

How to Serve Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte

Serve your Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte immediately after making it. It looks beautiful with the layers of strawberry and matcha, but mixing them together creates a fun flavor blend. This drink goes well with a light snack or can be enjoyed on its own.

How to Store Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte

It is best to enjoy this latte fresh. However, if you have leftover strawberry milk or matcha, you can store them separately in the refrigerator for a day. Just remember to give both a good stir before enjoying again.

Tips to Make Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte

For a frothier texture, you can use a milk frother on the coconut milk before blending.
If you want a creamier drink, consider adding more milk to the strawberry blend.
Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding more or less stevia, according to your taste.

Variation

You can try using different berries, like blueberries or raspberries, instead of strawberries. Each berry will give your latte a unique flavor and color!

FAQs

Can I use other sweeteners instead of stevia?
Yes, you can use honey, agave syrup, or any other sweetener you prefer.
Is matcha latte gluten-free?
Yes, matcha powder is naturally gluten-free, making this latte a great choice for those with gluten sensitivities.
Can I make this latte hot instead of iced?
Absolutely! You can skip the ice and enjoy a warm version by simply serving the matcha and strawberry mixtures while heated.
